I would say I felt very at home and confident that my mom was being taken care of with friendly care workers and med-techs. People in the offices were very helpful and friendly and took the time with you. The activities kept my mom busy with things to do. At this time of life as you get older, it can be challenging but I feel her care here was worth the money at that time.... Read more

We toured this community for care. It is expensive but if you have the cash it looks like a good place.

Brookdale Apple Valley is a very nice facility. It was a good fit for my mother because she requires memory care and can't be in an apartment by herself. It's definitely a good option for a senior who is more independent.

We toured this community when looking for my father.The staff was very friendly and it was a nice community. The reason we didn't choose them is they are not as affordable as other communities in the area.

I took this tour awhile ago but it was a nice place to visit. It would have been a suitable community for my loved one. It felt a little more institutional.

The community is lovely. However the staff was not helpful at all. There were certain things that the staff needed to do for my loved one and it never got done. The director kept telling me that they were understaffed and I feel that, that is not my problem. The communities job is to take care of my loved one. They left my loved one without being turned and fed properly. Me and my family would have to go to Brookdale Apple Valley everyday to make sure that our loved one was getting fed. Also the Director seemed hesitant about working with certain people that I had requested. I would not recommend this place.

I took a tour of this community and it was a little nicer than other places. Everything seemed to be nice and I was able to meet with the director who was informative. It was too expensive for my budget.

I really like this community it is a great place to move to. I have a friend that I knew already so that helped make the transition to the community easy. I looked at a few other communities and this one was the best. The food is great they have a good chef. I enjoy porker night and swimming in the pool. They are very attentive to me and always there when I need them.

I have not had any problems with them. The staff is professional, the facility is well maintained and kept, and the food is good. Not bad for a retirement home. So far we are very pleased with Brookdale.

There food is excellent. But they could use some more shrimp, everybody loves shrimp. The only thing that bothered me is that I was on a texting basis with one of the directors, and when my mom died it would have been nice for them to contact me after, because she was only there for a week and when she passed I never heard anything from them. I would have loved to live there myself.

Our experience with Brookdale Apple Valley has been a good one so far. It's a nice looking place, and the office staff are always ready and willing to answer any questions you have. My loved one hasn't been here long, but all of the longer term residents I've spoken with seemed happy and had no complaints!

So far my loved one really seems to be enjoying himself here! The facility itself is well kept and clean, and they have a lot of different services they provide to their residents. My loved one has had good things to say about the food, and likes how diligent they are when it comes to the room cleaning and laundry services.

Everyone is very friendly. This is my first experience with an assisted care facility so I don't have a lot to compare it to. My mother says that everyone is always very mindful of her, very willing to help, very kind. For those who participate, the activities are great. There are five or six activities every day, some in the facilities, some outside. In house they have Wii bowling, five card draw poker, exercise classes, bingo, scheduled trips to Balboa Island and Glen Ivy Health Spa. They have movie nights, with popcorn. They all know her mother's name, which is wonderful. If she forgets how to turn on the washing machine, all she has to do is ask for help. People are always saying hi, how are you, can I help you with anything. She is at level 1 care, which is the minimum. But when it comes to needing help with anything or asking questions, they are great. Also, the food is excellent. I did visit other facilities. The kitchen at Emeritus is open 7 AM until 7 PM. She doesn't have to rush down there for a meal. I think they've done a great job of trying to make it a home, as distinct from a dormitory like atmosphere. I'm very pleased.
